MEDNet Upgrade to Office 365/SharePoint Online

Who? 

  • All current MEDNet users are affected by these changes.  

Why?   

  • Our current MEDNet site will be deprecated in 2023 and we need to move to a better platform 
  • You can use O365 MEDNet with any browser 

What does this mean for me? 

  • Over the next year, your current MEDNet site(s) will be moved.
    • Depending on how your current site is used, it will be recreated as either a Teams site or a new O365 MEDNet site. 
  • As your current sites are moved and updated, we will be in a “hybrid” situation, using both MEDNet sites at the same time.
    • It will be important to use the navigation provided on both sites and be prepared to log in and authenticate to the O365 site with your FSUID. 
    • If you leave the O365 MEDNet site open in your default browser after logging in, you won’t need to constantly log in while moving between the 2 sites. 
  • All electronic forms in the current site will be re-written, updated and moved to the O365 MEDNet site. ​​​​​​​
    • As the new version of e-forms are published ​​​​​​​
      • You may need to log in and authenticate with your FSUID  ​​​​​​​
      • You will need to agree to use SharePoint and Outlook the first time you use them 
  • All links in the current site will be changing  
    • ​​​​​​​Your bookmarks will need to be updated as the information is moved.

 ​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​ 

 

I don’t get challenged, but I am getting access denied 

  • Check how you are logged in to O365 
  • Only FSUID@fsu.edu accounts have access to O365 MEDNet ​​​​​​​
  • Students tend to log in with their @my.fsu.edu accounts ​​​​​​​
    • NOTE:  FSU is upgrading all student @my.fsu.edu accounts to @fsu.edu accounts in May ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
  • You can log out and then log back in with the right account 

 ​​​​​​​ 

  • Try using a different browser ​​​​​​​
    • Using a different browser than normal forces the log in screen to open ​​​​​​​
  • You can be logged in to O365 with more than one browser with different accounts
